Chalice dungeons have a few normal enemy bosses but the pig is the winner

i feel like he has one or two different moves, and slightly more aggressive AI, but yeah, he's not that hard

It's such a robbery that you can see the blood effects in ds3 when you slash mobs but you don't get covered in it. And the riposte blood effect looks really bad


Omg I forgot you can Sprint for loving ever in this game

30 bt and 25 skill. or 40 and 40 would obviously be better. but get skill before bloodtinge cos you have to play without the chikage or bloodletter or whatever for a while before you get them.

i did like 14 str, 30 skl, 35blt. rushed the chikage asap (fighting logarius underleveled is c00l) and used that until i could get the bloodletter from the dlc. i dont really like using guns to do damage but im sure the pistol and the evelyn get pretty powerful

I would use guns to finish off bosses sometimes which felt dirty. At high blt Evelyn can do like 200 damage a shot

I.N.R.I

i always use the blunderbuss cos it interrupts casts. i only recently found out that the damage is calculated as 1 bullet, so even though it says like 20 dmg when you shoot something with it its actually like 200+ depending on how many pellets hit it. anyway the evelyn is actually pretty bad for parrying hunters or players cos the barrel is so long that you can shoot over their heads when theyre close

Being robbed of a visceral attack because they died from the bullet is no fun

I think the rifles are easier to parry with, but I'm sure good players can deal with either timing

I've definitely seen the game let you visceral somebody even if they're already dead which is satisfying

i used this for a while but viscerals are a lot harder to pull off when your movement is delayed after the shot
